Football: Rooney-less DC United hold off Ibra's Galaxy, 2-1 in MLS

Lucas Rodriguez and Paul Arriola scored in D.C. United's victory over Los Angeles. Rodriguez side-footed a rebound into an open net to make it 2-1 in the 73rd minute. Ulises Segura's shot from outside the box was stopped by a diving David Bingham but the rebound went directly to Arriola and the corner of the 6-yard box. His first-timer was parried by Bingham, but Rodriguez tapped in the putback from near the spot. D.C. (10-7-9) snapped a three-game winless skid and won for just the second time in its last eight matches despite not having the services of captain Wayne Rooney, who was out with a upper respiratory infection, following news he will depart MLS at the end of the season to replace Frank Lampard as player-manager at Derby County.
